Higher Voltage: Heaven & Hell Confirmed For Classic Rock Festival

Tony Iommi and Ronnie James Dio are pretty much deities as far as we're concerned, so it's fantastic to see them added to July's two-day High Voltage festival in London.

Here's the full statement – note the promise of 'clean tiolets' and no booking fee on tickets. Nice!

High Voltage is the must-see rock event of 2010 – a two-day festival featuring the very best in classic rock, progressive rock and metal. Custom built by rock fans, for rock fans.

Topping the bill are the legendary Emerson, Lake & Palmer and ZZ Top.

The latest additions add to an already stellar lineup that will run across two days and three stages – Main Stage, Prog Stage and Metal Stage.

Heaven & Hell are the latest addition to the main stage.

The current Heaven & Hell lineup of Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinnie Appice originally formed to tour the 1980 Black Sabbath album of the same name. The band went on to record the classic's Mob Rules, Live Evil and Dehumanizer. Brought together again in 2006 as Heaven & Hell, the band have recently released a critically acclaimed new album, 2009's The Devil You Know, and proved themselves as one of the worlds best live rock acts. The High Voltage performance will be as part of a 30th Anniversary tour.
